) are: the deltoid crest is strongly developed, with its maximum width in its proximal part at the level of the lesser tubercle. The deltoid tuberosity is weakly developed, but clearly seen on the proximal part of the deltoid crest. The intertubercular groove is narrow and deep. The ventral border of the deltoid crest is very sharp and sculptured, overhanging as an anconeal crest (ac, pl. 2,

The proximal part of the deltoid crest is located at the same level as the lesser tubercle and slightly above the head. The lesser tubercle resembles a flattened rectangle, deviates almost 45° from the bones axis, and is situated slightly above the head, but higher than the greater tubercle.
